comeonfhqwhgads Posted September 30, 2007 Share Posted September 30, 2007 i like my band's crossmen-esque aussies a lot, but if i were in charge ... we'd be wearing trilbys. nothing screams cool like a fedora with a rakish tilt. BD would probably look good in them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BD would probably look good in them. I like this hat, very, very classy. No one has said anything about berets yet contras wear them, I think. Lots of people don't like shakos but I have seen some with a great plume. It's all the plume when there is wind or turns, that visual thing. Headgear that moves or not? Depends on your corps style and 'signature'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GGarrett Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 Put me down for shakos (with a chain of course). A close second is the Bellville helmet. Those were very cool looking. My high school guard used to wear the Busby shakos, but they called them the "elephant tampons" and that sort of ruined them for me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WOOHOO Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 I prefer band hats. With the bill tilted back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raphael18 Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 I prefer band hats. With the bill tilted back. Aussies are the best for exhibiting that when explaining to the group how to look "hardcore." To far back and you are "cowboying" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ravedodger Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 I prefer any head gear that protects my bald head from the sun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
84BDsop Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 I prefer any head gear that protects my bald head from the sun. Boy, I hear you there! WAAAAAYY back when we tried to start Pacific Sound in San Diego, we marched a 4th of July parade in Coronado (with band instruments....the crowd didn't know the diff) and had no headgear. Had a good time...got home...jumped in the shower...bashed stinky bod...started to lather equally stinky head....hot water and shampoo collide with badly sunburned scalp.............. I think my neighbors heard my scream! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
